WORKSHOP PRINCIPLES
Care for self, care for others, care for body, care for land, careful work toward genuine & practical freedoms & decolonizations. Set intentions upfront—for whom & for what are you showing up? Think, read, listen, & create with a humble, generous, & “radical intellectual openness” (Critical Ethnic Studies Collective) which is to say, CREATE DANGEROUSLY (Edwidge Danticat via Camus) & CREATE CONTINGENTLY, be open to experimentation, play, and failure, rather, be open to learning through writing.
